Examines the various dimensions of the Armenian Genocide, through scholarly analyses, survivor narratives, journalistic accounts and other resources. Through the course, students develop a detailed understanding of the actual events of the genocide, its social and political causes, and its immediate and long-term impact on individual Armenians and the Armenian nation generally. Students will also treat in-depth the initial external response to the genocide, its political and legal aftermath, and the significant effort still made by the Turkish successor state to deny that the genocide occurred.
